If that's the kind of look your LCS staff gives you, then you are in the wrong comics shop.

My LCS regularly sells more copies of Tiny Titans than many other titles, including Savage Dragon, several DC and Marvel titles, and almost anything from Image except Buffy. It is purchased by married people, single people, parents, non-parents, men, and women.

My LCS only had one extra WDC #701, the comic shop guy thought it was cool it was being reviewed by a group of some kind.

When no other comic gets that kind of bullshit allowed as the score.

When you read Image United who said "Ok I don't really like this comic, but if I was a Liefield fan"

Or

"I don't really like New Avengers, but if this was my first run on the Avengers I've read"

It's stupid that people are changing thier score based on if others would like it.

I guess maybe because we are able to shift out minds to the fact that this is directed towards a different audience.

By your thought process, everytime I leave a kids movie with my children I should be pounding in their head how horrible the movie was for me since I am way to grown up for the silliness that I just saw. I choose to look at it through my children's eyes and ears, instead.

If there really is a case of comparing apples and oranges, this is it. Mickey Mouse and gang are nothing like Avengers, X-Men or Justice Society. Nor is it comparable to Scalped, Fables, or Preacher.
